This requires all expressions to be evaluated before they are combined, and prevents early termination. Early termination is not just a performance concern, but one of flexibility and correctness - it should be possible to express predicates which aren't safe to evaluate if another predicate acts as a guard to prevent its evaluation. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
